These were all great. Its a good thing that truck has such puffy tires or he might have hurt his legs when they were both sandwiched between the truck and the rock.

That third panel of the first comic just makes it. It's still funny if you remove it, but that panel included just makes it top tier.

I do want to pop in and say my 2016 VW does the increasing force thing on the automatic windows, so there's a little squeeze, double squeeze and then it simply smashes your arm or whatever. It's not that strong, I expect, but it's right in the manual. I have not tried it, and only one person doubted me and went second after I demonstrated it would bounce back, though he did comment it was a proper squeeze of his forearm.

My Acadia's hatch will just stop halfway and fully reopen if it detects anything in it's way.

Like seriously, why would you intentionally design it to just increase it's closing force?

Because it is a design that assumes enemy action.

It's only temporary in the sense that it needs regular air immediately to stay inflated, otherwise it'll just pop right of the rim from the negative relative pressure inside

So the trunk just keeps slamming itself harder and harder until it latches? And it's run by a learning algorithm?

It sounds so stupid, I thought I had to be understanding it wrong. But, no, that's exactly what it does.

How much force do you need to close a frunk? No idea, but put a large honking motor in there because we're going to need some hydraulic press channel poo poo to force it closed in case they do go for that cheap rear end lock. When will we know? No idea, post sale most likely. Dial it back tho, and put some ~algorithms~ in there so we can hotfix it later in a patch, it'll be fine

I don't own an automatic trunk but is it standard to put the button inside the trunk, forcing you to place your hand in the pathway of the giant bladed jaw in order to make it close?

One of the medical companies that advertised at uni a decade ago had a rep who went into detail about how they had a calibrated machine to break the legs of sedated monkeys so they could work out both how much force their internal fixature thing they'd developed would need to resist in use then check if it actually worked on the broken legged monkies. Incredibly psychotic stuff and one of the reasons I didn't do medical mechanical engineering. Absolute ethical hell.

It's usually on the inside of the trunk near the top, so you push the button and can easily get your hand out of the way.
